Comedian Craig Hill hosted the four and a half hour show which featured headliners Capercaillie who were joined by two former winners of the Scottish Trad Music Live Band of the Year Award Breabach and Skerryvore.

Capercaillie featured the peerless voice of co-founder Karen Matheson who demonstrated why she is universally recognised and loved as one of the finest Gaelic singers alive today; and the band had the crowd jigging and reeling along to their set for with obvious delight.

The midnight moment featured a spectacular fireworks display and the traditional singing of Auld Lang Syne.

There was a record attendance at the Winter Wonderland event which was postponed for 7 days due to flooding at Whin Park.

An estimated 2000 spectators braved heavy rain to attend the opening night show on Friday; 6000 attended on Saturday and 5500 attended on Sunday.

The feedback that we have received back suggests that this year's show was "the best yet".
